Chief of Air Staff, Air Vice Marshal Sadique Abubakar, has issued a stern warning to Boko Haram insurgents.
Abubakar, gave Boko Haram the choice of surrendering, or being confronted with the full might of the Army.
The COAS said this on Saturday, at the end of 2015 Annual 10-kilometer Walk/Jog of the Nigerian Air Force, in Abuja.
“My message to the insurgents is simple; it is either they give up their insurgency or they are going to face the force. We are putting together everything in place and we hope that they will keep to this advice and surrender their arms.
“They can come up so that we can bring this operation to an end, if not, the consequences will be terribly unbearable.”
“The deadline has been set and we are going to achieve that deadline. It is not only an Air Force war; it is a war that is jointly fought by all the forces.”
“Our responsibility is to make it easy for the surface forces to move around to conduct their operation without any hindrance and that is exactly what we have been doing.
“It is a very coordinated operation between the air elements and the land elements and that is why we are beginning to see the result of that coordination.”
